Mark…..Harold went on GB NEWS Channel here in UK couple weeks back
Please will you consider reaching out and being a voice also to them.
A slot occasionally on the Nigel Farage slot would have the most impact I’m certain
Cheers Mark
Great stuff
36 minutes into it and nothing very insightful. Waste of time.
Please keep these podcasts going. Here in Alberta we need more sensible conversations through out North America
Fascinating and informative. Really enjoyed it, thanks. One question: Harold mentioned going back to Wells and I wondered did he mean returning with better extraction methods, or because the well has refilled with oil? The latter has been mentioned in another podcast. Keep up the good work.
Good conversation for important topics. Gorge Mitchell technology saved USA and the world for these 15 years, and certainly and hard job of US oil industry drilling and fracking like G. Mitchell discovered or innovated. Drilling longer and fracking more was worth, but not silver bullet solution to increase oil recovery. Failure on EOR innovation on conventional oil reservoirs and shale oil reservoir is very serious for many oil importing countries, including here and USA where Shale oil is on cliff. USA has some relief from Canadian oil sands, but other oil importing countries will feel the pain, mainly EU countries. Competition is expanding with BRICS+, and this Cold War may effect Western World. Part of the solution short time will be on atomic energy and phasing out personal transportation and replacing it with public transportation. If thinking for longer then only EOR revolution to produce more oil from depleted reservoirs will be the answer. Failure on many or all EOR in USA or elsewhere, or very poor performance is from inability of operators to advance the technologies. When the technology works on models and labs the EOR technology must work on field. Operators on oil industry know very well the geology, know to drill and complete the wells, stimulate wells, frack and multitrack wells, but are unable to control the fluid displacement underground. The fact that the world is changing and competition is increased, to keep the economy healthy the west must support effective EOR technologies and increase the energy security. USA has potential to use effective EOR on unconventional reservoirs and fill the void on the market.
29:37 No way there's a 100-year supply of natural gas. It's 50k years' worth, and the same is true of oil and coal.
It is always fascinating to hear from the people who do the heavy lifting in providing machine food to enrich our lives. Hydrocarbons feed the machines that amplify human effort.
I also get a chuckle out of seeing unfinished wall studs and ceiling joists in Mark's studio. It reminds me of home.
"Solar farm" - I'm calling then - solar industrial complexes, - this is much more descriptive and less deceptive than their description of farm!
Solar mining field.
